Subcommentaries, Theravada
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The subcommentaries (Pali: tika, k) are primarily commentaries on the commentaries (Pali: atthakatha) on the Pali Canon of Theravada Buddhism. This literature continues the commentaries' development of the traditional interpretation of the scriptures. (Note that some commentaries are apparently also named with the term tika.)

Extracts from some of these works have been translated, usually along with translations of commentaries.
